    Overclocking my pre-overclocked PC again.

    I was using p95v294b8. Just found an old copy of p95v277 in a folder so might test that in a minute. Is there perhaps a more recommended version? Still I found even just upping my memory back to what it is meant to be without doing any OCing to the CPU, I was still getting bsods just under...

    Overclocking my pre-overclocked PC again.

    Given up and loaded defaults again. Issues noticed included a failure on blend test on test 6 on prime95. Getting bsod for click watchdog timeout, and also computer suddenly grinding to a halt, cursor lagging, inputs not registering and beeping sound coming from speakers. This is just giving me...

    Overclocking my pre-overclocked PC again.

    Well I've just been trying this out. I couldn't see how to set LLC to mid or how to set power phase control. Otherwise though i threw in your suggested settings, and after just 30 seconds of prime95 at those settings I was going into the 90s in terms of temps. I tried knocking down voltage but...

    3XL Surface affecting cursor

    So I have used Overclockers 3XL gaming surfaces for years, but recently bought another 3XL as my last one was not only dirty and gross but the edges were dog-eared and the new one has a nice edge to it that should prevent it from happening again, so I binned my old ones and started using this...

    RAID 0 Speeds decreasing rapidly.

    I'm using about 1TB of the 1.8TB share at the moment. The files that get recorded to it are ridiculously large (sometimes a few hundred gb a file)

    RAID 0 Speeds decreasing rapidly.

    Hi all. I currently have a setup with two Western Digital 1TB Hard Drives in RAID 0 for increased write speeds for a video recording setup. I've noticed recently the framerate I used to get whilst recording no longer exists. After benching it, I notice it's gone down from 250mb/s to 160mb/s...

    So I asked the MSI Notebook UK FB page and they seem to think it's running Maxwell too...

    ** MSI GS60 GHOST NOW AVAILABLE & GS70 STEALTH CRACKING DEAL!! **

    I'm curious about what this means for the 860M being Kepler and not Maxwell? I've not been paying attention to these architectures so no idea what this means. I've been looking at the currently discounted £1159 860M version on here, looking for a thin and light laptop for video editing on the...

    Post RST & RAID 0 Boot times

    Yeah, having had games on SSD and also my Spinpoint I couldn't point out a performance difference with either. Sadly though the raid setup isn't for games but for 1080 60p recording of games on DXtory. Sadly one hard drive was not enough to keep up! So this explains the POST time, but not so...

    Be Quiet! Dark Rock 2 fan removal?

    I tried for 10 minutes with mine. After changing the shape of my fingers I gave up. :D

    PSU fan spooling?

    I have a Corsair HX750 and ever since having this computer I've noticed a certain fan that will remain quiet but every 10 - 20 minutes it will speed up to an audible level for 5 seconds, then slow back down until you can hear it eventually stopping. This has happened since having the computer...

    Post RST & RAID 0 Boot times

    Yeah that's pretty much what the change has been for me. When I didn't have the RAID0 setup I was just using AHCI and it was great. I honestly didn't think there would be such an adverse effect considering the RAID0 setup isn't for the boot drive anyway.

    Are these temps too high?

    I have two AF140s in the front and a single AF140 at the rear for exhaust. Not sure how better to improve airflow as at the same time I am also going for an almost silent setup. It used to be silent on my old i5 + stock intel cooler setup and now it's only marginally audible with the Dark Rock...

    If you were just going to OC it yourself, why not just buy it separately?
